i'd happily make ads for a living i think

i wouldn't. at least not on the creative end.

imagine being constantly pressured by a coke-addled boss to take a product like paper or wheelchairs or towels and make it "sexy"

and then feedback is "not sexy enough, do it over" ad nauseum

love it when advertisers tell you a compelling story and then just slap their name at the end in a hamfisted way

they bring together information, ideas, and technology

obviously

i just saw a tv ad during the giants game that was relevant to my interests! the ad was for MR PICKLE'S SANDWICH SHOP. i was not aware of this shop, and there is one near me! well, two towns over, but close enough. how the gently caress can you go wrong with something named MR PICKLE'S? i submit that you cannot.

nice try, mr. pickle

here's an ad success story for you

in 'stranger things: 2' there's a segment where the boy and girl go to somebody's house for dinner, but the family didn't have time to cook, so they ordered Kentucky Fried Chicken instead. it's really over the top; they're crunching into the extra-crispy skin, complimenting the meal, yum yum yum. they even throw in the "finger-lickin good" tagline.

anyway so i go to bed after watching this drivel, and i have a beautiful dream about a KFC drive-thru. then I wake up, and that's all I can think about. a few hours later the colonel has my $5 for one of his lovely chicken boxes. cha-ching

fuckin' love KFC. did you get the mashed potatoes and gravy? love that gravy.

for $5 you can get three chicken tendies, a bowl of mashed potatoes & gravy, extra sauce, and a chocolate chip cookie. it's a pretty great deal

e: and a drink
